It *might* be related to this change [1] in glibc since the parted_server.c code
uses the %ms

Next thing to try would be replacing the parted_server binary from a known
working version of the partman-base package.
Older versions of the package can be found here [1]

well done Adrian!
I'm sometimes not very smart ;-).
Will fix that. Working image by tomorrow.

Do you have a fix for partman also?

Regular fdisk doesn't support Mac partitions as far as I know.
That's by debian-ins
If I go to a console, I can see that the disk has five partitions (with
parted).
The strange thing is that if I issue a
fdisk -l
I do not see the partitions.
I also see an error message in tty4 saying:

To come back to my incorrect sha256sum, I downloaded the iso yesterday. It was
the image created on 7.11.2020. I checked against the shasums of the 'current'

I tried again, checksummed the iso, all correct. I burnt the iso on the usual

I always get the same error that it cannot mount the CDROM.

I don't agree Adrian. The same PowerBook does not have these problems with the
19.04.2020 image you created. The CDROM gets mounted each time and I can
install Debian without problems, except now of course because of hfsprogs.

Hi,
I just tried to install Debian on a PowerBook G4. I had the partitioning
done automatically. At the end, the installation of grub failed. The
problem resides in hfsprogs. The error message I get is the following:

Hi Samuel!
I'm working on adopting hfsprogs now and I will also pick the patch from
